The European Algae Biomass Association (EABA) is a non-profit organization which gathers 200 academic and industrial stakeholders from the algae sector. Its goal is to promote mutual interchange and cooperation in the field of algal biomass production and use in numerous sectors (e.g., food, feed, cosmetics, agriculture). EABA organizes regular events such as webinars on a variety of topics and conferences. The organization was founded in September 2009 in Florence (Italy) during its inaugural conference at Villa La Pietra. As of 2022, EABA's President is Carlos Unamunzaga (Fitoplancton Marino S.L., Spain).[1]
